I like it, I reckon a polycarb buggy body would compliment it very nicely.

Wow, 15 bids and up to $77!
It's amazing what people will pay for individuality

just think about it Mondo, Im using all of the AE hopups so far and if someone else is doing the same then both micros will be identical,---- the individual will always want something that sets there micro's apart from everyone else. (its a look what i have that kind of thing.)
